Marc Ribot: Asmodeus - Book of Angels, Volume 7
by Troy Collins
Asmodeus: The Book of Angels, Volume 7 is the most visceral exploration of the Masada songbook yet. In 2004, composer John Zorn added an additional 300 pieces to his already massive collection of Masada tunes. In the ensuing years, these pieces have been performed and recorded by a variety of ensembles beyond the original Masada Quartet. ...
The Cracow Klezmer Band: Remembrance
by Elliott Simon
This month, Krakow, Poland plays host to the world's top klezmer musicians as they take part in the city's 17th Jewish Cultural Festival. That a celebratory event of this magnitude occurs in a city that, prior to the Holocaust, was home to one of the most important Jewish cultural centers in Europe is evidence of this ...
Fred Frith/Chris Cutler: Issue Two
by Marc Medwin
This addition to the Frith/Cutler catalogue was recorded during the Henry Cow reunion weekend at New York City's The Stone in December, 2006; for those familiar with the recent working methods of both musicians, the only surprise is how rich and full this document sounds. Consisting of one 50-minute track, the duo creates the illusion of ...
Electric Masada: At the Mountains of Madness
by Kurt Gottschalk
There's a reason that Masada has been around for some thirteen-and-a-half years (officially coming to--or at least nearing--an end with two concerts this month at New York's Jazz at Lincoln Center), one that Zorn has offered more than once: the band is just so much fun. Whether or not he likes the term, the quartet with ...
Henry Kaiser / Charles K. Noyes / Song Won Park: Invite the Spirit 2006
by Kurt Gottschalk
What was remarkable about the first Invite the Spirit record by the trio of guitarist Henry Kaiser, percussionist Charles K. Noyes and San Won Park (who plays the Korean kayagum, a twelve-stringed zither-like instrument) was how neatly they subsumed Asian traditions with the Western avant-garde. On the trio's second record, they more or less do the ...
Ned Rothenberg: The Fell Clutch
by AAJ Italy Staff
Ned Rothenberg, fine sofista dell’ancia e specialista preso spesso a modello per la tecnica di respirazione circolare, qui è alla guida di un gruppo che ha nel particolare timbro, nell’ampia visione aperta al nuovo e nell’eccezionale pulsione ritmica i suoi aspetti migliori. Timbro, abbiamo detto, perché elementi imprescindibili nel valutare questo CD sono la capacità del ...
Alon Nechushtan: The Growl
by Eyal Hareuveni
There are many reasons to be suspicious about the sudden--if not superficial--revival of Eastern European Jewish folk music, ie. klezmer, in the States, especially when examining the catalogue of the Radical Jewish Culture series of John Zorn's Tzadik imprint. Many young outfits which emerge from New York's Downtown scene or innovative music academies, stating that they ...
